This shouldn't be a problem from Debian's p.o.v. if we can adjust how packages end up in the zip file. If for example the zip contains wheels, and we finish the dirtbike (or similiar) project to rewheel distro packages, we'd use those pip-build-time generated wheels in the zip and be all good. Of course, we'd probably have to rebuild pip when we change any of those dependencies, but I think that's tractable. I think the proposed solution is a better user experience that either of pipX.Y or `pythonX.Y -m pip`, so I'm glad you're experimenting with this approach. Cheers, -Barry
